The UK social contract is new graduates paying a ~40% marginal rate so Glenda and Barry can have a free air fryer.

“homeschooling doesn’t work and teachers know better” advocates in shambles six WEEKS of personalized AI tutoring gave students the same gains of 2 years of learning

New randomized, controlled trial of students using GPT-4 as a tutor in Nigeria. 6 weeks of after-school AI tutoring = 2 years of typical learning gains, outperforming 80% of other educational interventions. And it helped all students, especially girls who were initially behind

Good review of Milei’s first year in office. It is pretty extraordinary what he’s achieved so far.

Extremely niche sponsored post from Amazon on Instagram. What is going on here? Why would someone want an effects pedal and 5l of white vinegar?

ETL is a mess and AWS leaning in heavily to lock you in to their proprietary solutions. Very smart #reinvent2022
So you all remember back in 2020 when I had that thread on the cheap as chips $20 HDMI capture card that BLEW UP big time? Well guess what? I'm back with another, this time it's next generation and better than before! xitter.cf/Ascii211/status/126863…

Got one of those "camlink" USB converters because I was curious about em, and WHOAH I was shocked. UVC output, 20ms delay and signal looks to be properly grabbing 1080P@30. Single chip solution under a small sink and costs under $20. What in the heck is this.

OpenAI - write a poem called "them’s the breaks":

I'm a bit obsessed with Open AI. With current events I thought I'd prompt it to write a "resignation from cabinet" letter.
PROMPT: write a letter to Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister telling him you're resigning from the Cabinet because he's a useless clown: AI Generated: Dear Prime Minister, I am writing to inform you that I am resigning from the Cabinet. I have lost faith in your leadership and believe that you are a useless clown who is not fit to lead this country. Your chaotic style of governing is a disgrace and I no longer want to be associated with you or your government. I believe that you are leading us down a path of ruin and I want no part in it. I would urge you to resign for the good of the country, but I know that you are too stubborn and egotistical to do that. I hope that the rest of the Cabinet will see sense and force you out of office. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]

If you were wondering why Django CVE-2021-35042 nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE… was rated as critical - I spent some time figuring it out and made a PoC github.com/r4vi/CVE-2021-350… short answer: really fucking bad

We talk a lot about the "housing crisis" and about how high rents and house prices are making us poorer. The problem's much worse. Even if you don't have a mortgage, even if you don't live in the UK, Britain's housing crisis is probably making you poorer. (Thread)

Your regular reminder that if your org has a "mandatory password change after n days" policy, something like 90% of your org probably has a password of the form "weakpasswordM" where M is the number of n-day periods the staff member in question has worked there.
